    Bilstein shocks.. HELP PLEASE

    My father and I are replacing the front springs and shocks on my e30, once we removed everything and were getting ready to replace the shock we realized that the original collar did not fit the new bilstein shocks, and we didnt receive new collars with our purchase. We have Bilstein shocks pne-3050. Does anyone know of a place that we can just buy the collars for these shocks? Thank you!

    Bilstein will sell them although your shocks should have come with them.

        I'm pretty sure my dad purchased them through someone on this forum actually, we still have the packaging etc that it was shipped with so were planning on contacting them and asking if it was a simple mistake. and when i called bilstein they said they didnt have them for this specific model =/

          Um, are you sure they are for the Vert? If I can remember right the housings are not the same for the cabby. I swapped out my Brother's housings for coupe ones. Reason was Koni was backed up for 2 months. Canceled the Konis and got the Billy sports.

          If I remember right the housings are not the same size. So search for some sedan or coupe ones and see if they screw in.
